Public bug reported:
In previous Ubuntu versions, including 22.10, I was able to open
HEIF/HEIC files by installing libheif1 and heif-gdk-pixbuf. This does
not work anymore in 23.04.
Running eog in a terminal displays:
$ eog IMG_9996.HEIC

eog then shows "Could not load image “IMG_9996.HEIC”. Image loading

gpicview even crashes immediately:

The problem concerns all HEIF/HEIC images I tested.
The installed versions of the (possibly) relevant packages are:
libheif1: 1.14.2-1
heif-gdk-pixbuf: 1.14.2-1
libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0: 2.42.10+dfsg-1build1
